The Nebraska girls volleyball team has had 5 championships since 1995.  They have made it to finals 9 times and have lost 4 of those due to miss communication and little errors that could be fixed. In 1997, made it to the finals, but they lost because they were not well organized, but the next year they got more organized and they won the championship which was then their second championship in less than 4 years.

           The Nebraska Volleyball team is a really good team and they know how to make up for their errors which makes them look good and they learn from their mistakes. 6e Nebraska girls volleyball team has had the best; Liberos, Setters, and hitters. A good volleyball team needs all of those three things. That’s the reason why the Nebraska girls team has won the championship several times. Although they aren’t the same players every year, the coach knows what the team needs and sees who qualifies to be in the team.

           One other important thing that the team needs to be really good is to have a really smart and good captain/coach. The reason why a volleyball team needs a really smart coach is because if they are playing in a game and the team cannot make the point, you need that smart coach to tell the team what to change and see how they can make the point. You also need a really good coach because it can be difficult to learn when the coach does not have passion and gets you in trouble when you do something wrong. Although, it is not bad when the coach is a bit strict because he needs to push you to be better because if you do not have some type of push by the coach you will never succeed. 

          An 18 year old girl named Elizabeth Ortiz who started playing volleyball since middle school and is now playing for her college that she assists to, was interviewed and the first question i asked her was, “What drew your attention into playing volleyball?” and she said, “What really drew my attention was how we have to keep the ball from hitting the ground and how you had to do it with only 6 players” another question was, “What is the best part about playing volleyball?” and she said, “The fun thing about volleyball is that you always have to be ready and you have to be active because you do not know where the ball is going to go so it makes it like a mystery sometimes.” The last question that I asked her was, “Do you recommend other people to play volleyball?” and she said, “I actually do recommend other people to play volleyball because it is a really fun sport, and any person with any age can play volleyball which makes it even more fun because that is when you can try out new things no matter your age.” 

          Volleyball is really fun and we do not just hear it from people, but we also see it when the girls are playing and the big smiles on their faces say it all. Now, “Do you want to try out and play volleyball?” Maybe one day you can be a really good player and just spread the word. The Girls Nebraska Volleyball team inspires a lot and they prove that anyone can do big things in life. They have made it to finals a lot and just because they try their best just like their coach to try and get them to where they are. It is a huge experience and a good opportunity to try something new.
